| Okay, after looking into this, you're not entirely crazy Ryan (except perhaps you should be accusing Bill of being ''my'' sockpuppet, since I signed up first).. apparently Bill only ever edited while he was at work, and I almost ''never'' edit from work, so it was harder than I'd expected to find concurrent edits — but here they are: | |||

This was an unrelated (and quite clearly unjustified) block, so if you're going to leave me blocked please at least give a better explanation as to why. Addendum: It just occurred to me that Jayron32 might think the block had something to do with the events mentioned in the first set of links — which all took place many months ago and have nothing to do with the current situation (I didn't notice until now that Bill and I were discussing one of our previous run-ins with overzealous admins..

| I find this whole accusation a bit surreal. I am sure there have been more elaborate hoaxes played here on WP, but Ryan somehow managed to see through it.

If they are ] of each other, it is a convincing game (to me) the puppetmaster has been playing, including of schizoid-like game-playing. From the tone, it is obvious the two know each other extremely well, but it never occurred to me that they were one and the same. Now we know it was for public consumption. People who know each other that well would not post that to talk pages. | |||

The content previously on this page has been deleted. The user account associated with it has been abandoned. The previous owner of the account disagrees with the claims posted on the user page.
This is not an attempt to hide any evidence from public view. The most recent version of this page prior to the placement of this message can be viewed here. That version is missing information that was removed in an earlier edit. That removed content can be viewed here.
There are three additional archived copies of content that previously appeared on this page. Those talk page archives can be viewed here:
This is not an attempt to hide anything from public view. The above links provide access to it for anyone on Misplaced Pages who wants to access it. It is meant to protect the privacy of the previous owner, by limiting exposure of the content found here on search engines, which typically only index current versions of pages, and from Misplaced Pages mirrors that only make use of current versions of pages. This method of archiving has the added benefit of reducing the size of the database/XML dumps for the English Misplaced Pages and the time taken to produce them, and may have possible benefits for storage of current articles in the database, either now or in the future. It is thus actually beneficial to the project, and not harmful or disruptive.
